Re: Is afw a valid coral identification term


Honestly, it looks like bite marks to me, that's just my take on it.


I'm in agreement with the cautious approach. My personal experience with AEFW was mostly on smooth-skinned corals, as I've never had a large collection of millis. The signs I've seen were quite different from the photos posted ...

Re: Is afw a valid coral identification term

AEFW bites are typically small, well-defined marks that usually appear in a line. Check out some of the threads on AEFW, there are plenty of pics that show this.

Re: Is afw a valid coral identification term

I'm not seeing the bite marks you're talking about. The pale areas don't look like it to me. Maybe the tiny white dots, but they don't really resemble CF bite marks or trails.

Honestly, I'm just not seeing it, not convinced it's AEFW. What's making you so certain that's what you're dealing with?
